i'm a huge fan of mikey, i honestly think he's a special talent and a superb boxer. but god damnit, he makes it really hard to be a fan with his constant bullshit about fighting out of his weight. he just won a belt at 140 and dropped it so he could get back to 135. now he wants to fight the arguably biggest puncher at 147? spence would probably be a big puncher at 154, for fuck's sake.
this is about as likely as fighting cotto a year ago.
but if he fights errol, i expect his career to end without exaggeration. i'm not sure that's better than losing a fight with lomachenko, which i'm not completely certain about anyway. mikey is a killer at 135, and lomachenko is severely undersized at lightweight.It sounds like The Khan job. Same way Khan avoided Brook at his own weight and jumped to fight Canelo knowing he wouldn't lose his belt or his ranking even though he had no hope of winning. Mikey said on FOUR different occasions that he wants Errol instead of Lomanchenko. If he goes up to fight Errol he gets to keep his belts and his rank and everyone will just say he had no business being in the ring with him in the first place. Whereas if he fought Loma and got wrecked people would just say Loma was the better fighter.

by the way, has spence ever responded to this horseshit? why on earth would he want to fight garcia in the first place?
